Here are the 5 benefits of lighting up our parking lot with LED lights

1. Reduction in lighting energy use

Depending on the time of year, you can have your parking area accessories in more than 12 hours every day. When it comes to lighting, especially the high wattage and lumen accessories required by the outdoor areas; This can turn out to be a big expense for your business.

For reference, LED systems offer more lumen output per watt, which is all that matters when it comes to getting the most efficient lighting. The reason behind this is because let's say you have two different LED products, one of them emits 135 lumens per watt, while the other has 120 lumens/watt. To feed a light that produces 18,000 lumens; The 120 lumens per watt accessory will take 150 watts to reach 18,000 lumens total. While the 135 lumens per watt accessory will only require approximately 133 watts to generate the same amount of light as the other higher watt accessory products.

Do you see the importance of kropiedad, people and goods (PPA)
The property you do business from, the people who work for you and your customers, and the assets on which you keep your business going. All these things are very important for any business. Without protecting all three things; no business could exist. That's why installing better lighting lights (such as LED technology) allows for a reduction in potential crime by making the area more visible to both people and cameras. Think about this… Would you rather walk through a dark parking area that is known to have some reports of malicious activity? Or would you rather walk through a well-lit lot that will prevent people from hiding in the dark and allow security cameras to capture faces more clearly? Light is a major deterrent to crime, and if your business has been (or even hasn't been) affected by crime in the past, you'll probably want to see the brightness levels of your lighting equipment right now and see if that can be. An area of concern for your company.

3. Create greater eye-catching ness and professionalism while reducing costs

What will customers think, when they come to their point of sale, office or warehouse and see dim, flashing and/or flashing lights as soon as they stop? It's probably not the best first impression you can make. 

See this image as an excellent example of the quality that LED products can bring to your car lot:

The essential thing is this: the LED has and will always improve the view of your parking lot from its installation. Just look at the images for the test! LEDs offer a better color rendering index rating compared to other technologies. This allows your business to look more professional and look much more attractive from afar and up close.

In addition to this, LED bulbs and accessories never emit any buzzing or flickering, even near the end of their useful life. On the other hand, technologies such as metal halide and HPS do, so if you experience a similar problem, you probably have one of these two outdated technologies.

Another big point that will be linked to the next benefit in this list is that LEDs experience slower light depreciation and less than other light sources. This allows you not to overcompensate for lighting settings just to compensate for the depreciation lumens your devices generate. Let's talk about it more in the next benefit.

4. Longer service life ? lower maintenance costs ? higher end result

Another benefit of LEDs is that it has a much longer lifespan. While a metal halide or HPS light source can last 15 to 20 thousand hours; An LED can last more than 50 thousand hours.

1. Longer service life – less purchase of new bulbs to replace old ones when burned (which costs money)
2. Less maintenance costs: replacing the lights on top of the poles can be costly; Especially when you have many of them in your parking area.

These benefits of longer life LEDs are obvious, and yet they are often overlooked and can save you money. Another topic we've talked about earlier is about light depreciation. Metal halide and HPS experience greater and faster depreciation in light output than any LED product. Then, while a new newly installed metal halide accessory can look the same as an LED to start its lifespan; Give him a few years and watch the difference. It is guaranteed that the LED will be brighter for longer. On the subject of saving money, how about the ultimate benefit that will make you fall in love with LED technology and what you can do for your business?

5. Discounts, rebates, rebates!

While you should be careful with the LED products you buy and from where you buy them; Commercial LEDs are as open to discounts as any other. Something called the DesignLights Consortium (DLC for short) qualifies the products and lists them on your site if they pass vigorous tests established by them. They offer two types of listing: standard and premium DLC. As you can probably say; premium just means it's even higher quality than the standard.

We recommend that you only purchase products that are DLC-qualified and stay away from non-DLC-qualified products. Not only are unqualified DLC products not eligible for commercial rebates, but they also prove to be of lower quality. Think; If a company offers quality lights, what is the reason for not rating? There isn't, and that's exactly our point.
